RaynnaRPG
by raynna
RaynnaRPG brings level-based progression to NeoForge 1.21.1, gating mining, crafting and smelting behind a player's experience level.
What it does
Players tie their skill to their experience level, and some actions stay locked until that level is reached. Mining, tool crafting, material crafting and smelting each depend on the level required for a given resource, so advancing gives access to more advanced materials and tools. The system is meant to add a deeper layer of progression on top of the vanilla game, with the challenge rising as players move through it.
The mod is an MMORPG-style project under development and is published for NeoForge only, with files for 1.21 and 1.21.1. Its latest file is 1.6.1 for 1.21.1, released on 2025-04-24. Because it runs on client and server, the server and every player need the mod. The author notes that it no longer requires SilentGear, so it can be used in a vanilla modpack, and it is released under the MIT License as open source, with source code and an issue tracker available on GitHub.
Key features
Level-gated mining
Mining certain resources requires a minimum experience level, so deeper materials stay out of reach until the player advances.
Level-gated crafting
Tool and material crafting recipes are restricted by level, which ties the gear a player can make to their progress.
Level-gated smelting
Smelting resources follows the same level requirements, adding another step between raw material and finished item.
Evolving progression
The progression system is intended to grow over time, and the project is set to receive further updates.
